Hi Alex -- Your issue is on the table for MHTML discussion.
Jacob is on travel without net access, so we must work on this
without him;-)...
Hopefully your assessment of substantive isses is correct, so we mihgt
be done with the current drafts as soon as we resolve this issue.
Cheers...\Stef

}I forget whether we have already discussed this in the past, but since
}its the only substantial issue that I found in the latest revision of
}the core MHTML draft, I thought I should bring it up right away.
}
}draft-ietf-mhtml-rev-03 says "There MUST only be a single
}Content-Location header in each message or content-heading". I'm not
}sure I see the need for this restriction. In fact, it might be really
}useful to be able to send one body part labeled as:
}
} Content-Location: myimg.gif Content-Location: MyImg.gif
} Content-Location: MyImg.GIF
}
}If you knew that those three URLs were the same thing (by checking
}the actual data, etc).
}
}Note that this language to restrict to a single Content-Location
}header is new since RFC 2110.
}
}My proposal is to change the text to allow multiple Content-Location
}headers. For the purposes of determining the correct Content-Base we
}would specify that you only look at the first one.
}
}Please post ASAP what you think about this issue- I would like to
}resolve it before the drafts deadline (which gives us less than a
}week).
